Ok also AOC and Elon Musk are not in a “tit-for-tat feud.” AOC is a duly elected member of Congress who operates under an oath to our constitution and Elon Musk is an unelected Nazi billionaire whose wealth makes him think he’s above the law and empowered to illegally torch our government.

While you weren't looking, Trump rolled back Biden's ethics rules prohibiting executive branch employees from accepting major gifts from lobbyists. So much for "drain the swamp."

"[For the Right], D.E.I...is the mere presence of a woman or nonwhite person or disabled or transgender person in any high-skilled, high-status position. And their alternative isn’t some heretofore unknown standard of merit; it is the reintroduction of something like segregation." (gift link)

“Today, DEI has become the new N-word; the new rightwing abstraction deployed by Republicans to conceal their anti-Black racism.” My latest for the Guardian, in which I cite Lee Atwater, and bring lots of receipts. Sorry, but it has to be said:

1/Trump's incessant trade and deportation spats causing prices to rise and businesses like Black Rifle Coffee (a very pro Trump coffee company) to shutter locations is a perfect microcosm of what MAGAts are supporting. #TheyVotedforThis #getRoasted www.cnn.com/2025/01/28/b...

A megalomaniac billionaire is using teenagers to tear apart federal institutions and influence policy for his own gain, and all the stopgaps that were baked into our constitution seem to be dead. But hey, Monster Hunter Wilds is coming out soon! So I guess you win some you lose some.

One of our country's _most_ foundational geographic datasets has been either pulled down or otherwise configured to prevent access. Not sure it's possible to overstate the value of Census' free/publicly available TIGER files to research and journalism and, at least for now, it's gone.

I like to occasionally check in on conservative subreddits to see how they're spinning things. Bro. They're STILL calling themselves the party of common sense! It would be funny if it weren't so terrifying.

New from me in @newrepublic.com: “Primary Every Democrat.” If the current crop cannot demonstrate they care more about democracy than enjoying three-day weekends, we should flood the zone and challenge them all.

Destroying NOAA will be a massive loss, and should be seen as a abject failure of the democratic party to follow through on being the party championing climate science if #fElon is allowed to strip away the data hosted there without recourse. Time to keep to your word Dems! #DoSomething

"Call your senators! Call your representatives!" I mean I'll try, but my senator abandoned his state in the midst of a freezing emergency, and my representative won't shut up about Hunter Biden. So that's fun. #eattheGOP

Grabbott's bootlicking will get him nowhere, and he knows it. We Texans know it. I'm just so sick of these monsters antagonizing allies by claiming that they can hold their citizens economically hostage for longer.

An unelected billionaire, with no actual Congressional authority or govt experience, has access to Treasury payment systems and sensitive information about millions of Americans who receive Social Security checks, tax refunds, and other payments.

From a journalist friend: Just spreading the word. The CDC is purging data, so people should archive their favorite CDC datasets today, namely ones around race/ethnic diversity, LGBTQ, and reproductive health. Also health data involving climate. The youth risk behavior survey has already gone down.
